$21M for Novella.
E&S insurance is a $150B+ market still run on email, and spreadsheets. It's a $150B+ inbox.
Capital is fuel. Here's the destination.
We're building the operating system for E&S. Fast, open, AI-native.
Huge thanks to our investors, retail agents & carriers.
Novella raised $21M to give insurance brokers super-powers.
We’ve spent the last two years working with insurance brokers and carriers to answer their one question - how will AI impact my job?
Today, we’re sharing the answer:

📣 Update: we raised our $60m Series B from @Lux_Capital, @IndexVentures and @01Advisors, with participation from @sequoia, @eladgil and @BainCapVC .
When we came out of stealth 283 days ago, we had negotiated contracts worth $30m for our clients. As of last month, that number is over $1 billion.
We work with the most ambitious companies in the world, including @tryramp, @clay and @RogoAI. Today, we want you to hear from some of them directly.
Contracts are the rails of commerce. @crosbylegal is a hybrid AI law firm that gets them signed 80% faster. We’re announcing our Series B to keep scaling the dream law firm.

Dear @BillAckman - As one investor to another, I am sure you do Due Diligence before investing in a company or a stock. It is the least you can do before giving advice on foreign policy or weapons.
There is one proximate cause to the pickle that Israel is in now: @BarackObama 👇

We just started rolling out Lemonade Life, a Term Life insurance that’s fully digital, requires no doctors or needles, and is actually fun to get!
In the next few weeks, we will learn and iterate, and then open it up for everyone.

This is as remarkable and inspiring as it is just plain exciting - could it be that by March I can go out to dinner with friends at my favorite Tel Aviv restaurant?!?! Looks that way...

Happy to finally share what we've been working on in the past week: lemonade.com/giveback-2020
Some fun details:
- Everything is CSS and SVG with some manual animations. We considered using Lottie but preferred to have granular control over the flow with some math and proper lerps.

In Tokyo today:
Saw lines of teenagers waiting for a “pop up” of limited edition designer Coronavirus masks made by Pitta.
The same brand worn by a model at New York Fashion Week last week.
This is the world in 2020.

Dear Basketball -
And we both know, no matter what I do next
I’ll always be that kid
With the rolled up socks
Garbage can in the corner
:05 seconds on the clock
Ball in my hands.
5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1
Love you always,
Kobe

Wonder how many times this week the following conversation has begun:
"You see that ridiculous Peloton ad?"
"No. Wait. What's Peloton?"
"Oh, well I wanted to talk about the ad. But first let me explain the product to you."
Marketing works in mysterious ways...

this isn't really what twitter is for, but ten years ago today my son died and I basically never talk about it with anyone other than my wife. it's taken me ten years to realize that I want to talk about it all the time.
this is about grief

When someone uses a device in a social setting, a polite way to get past the distraction may be to ask “I see you’re on your phone. Is everything okay?”
